requireNativeComponent: "BVLinearGradient" was not found in the UIManager when I use Expo

[sylainx]

I've been trying to implement se Package in my Expo project for a few days. Without success. I keep getting the same error

` "dependencies": {

"react-native-paper": "4.9.2",

"@expo/vector-icons": "^12.0.0",

"expo-constants": "~12.1.3",

"react-native-skeleton-placeholder": "*",

"@react-native-masked-view/masked-view": "0.2.5",

"react-native-linear-gradient": "2.5.6" 

} `

Yes, you need to go for an alternative package bcoz it does not work with expo or you can use react cli. This package works good with react cli.

See https://github.com/chramos/react-native-skeleton-placeholder/issues/65#issuecomment-1311809097 for a potential workaround

I believe you have to use the dev-client. https://docs.expo.dev/development/create-development-builds/

This creates a client that allows BVLinearGradient to be registered

Check the discussion for Expo Fix:

@YasserShkeir thanks for the effort on the fix, but reaching into a package and manually applying patches isn't the way to go.

If there are no plans to provide the fix, at least the documentation can mention it.

Same issue here

I tried many things, but still, the issue is there. Agree with @chramos

The fix by @YasserShkeir works for me with SDK 49 (make sure you have expo-linear-gradient installed). You can then create a patch with patch-package. Not perfect, but it works.
